Chapter 567

Manley was a mess, sobbing so hard he could barely catch his breath. His face was a blend of tears and snot, a picture of utter distress.

Frederick pulled out a tissue and stepped forward to clean Manley’s face, casting a glance at Yuna. His gaze softened as he looked back at Manley, “Manley, let’s talk this out, buddy. No lying, okay?”
